As I’m writing this post, the meter reached 99% that means the $20 Best Buy card will be giving out any moment!

I’m excited to announce that we have another Giveaway! We have a sponsor!
Canada Computers is willing to sponsor us with a Kingston 4GB USB Drive! It takes a bit of work for me to get this prize. Thanks to my friend who employed at Canada Computers and he referred me to one of the sales managers. After numerous talks, I’m able to get my hands on this product

Not enough? Ok, I’m going to throw in $20 (via PayPal) as well! This $20 bonus came from the $203.57 that we made from Google Adsense in the January 2008 Report.

Thank You for your continuing support and I hope you don’t mind the multiple Ads being displayed on this site as this is our main source of income!

How to win? Check out the Gizmo-meter for details.

I have yet another prize to giveaway. I got a few Best Buy Gift Cards from Christmas and I’m going to give them away to our readers. The cards were purchased in Canada, so I am not sure if they are valid in other country. No worries. I will give you options! I can give you $20CDN via Paypal instead. You might get slightly less than $20 due to the PayPal service charge but Canadian dollar is stronger than US.

Oh, make sure you check out our previous lucky winners Here.

If you’re on a budget and would like to get a Cool Christmas gift for your nephew or some kids, I strongly recommend this amazing toy! Picoo Z The remote controlled helicopter fits comfortably into the palm of your hand weighing a mere 10g. (Due to the super lightweight design, indoor is the only option) A 20 minute charge direct from the controller gives 10 minutes flight time with flashing lights. It’s robust yet light polypropylene structure makes it easy to fly and extremely robust.

Once you have mastered the Picoo Z (it’s hard to get the hang of it initially), the more competitive amongst you may want to try challenging another two of your friends to a PicooZ race or sky battle, made possible with their tri-band technology (Up to 3 Simultaneous Planes in the air).

Combine all this with an auto-stability system and precision speed; the PicooZ is quite simply superb.

I picked up one from Wal-mart for $19.99CDN

One thing that’s kind of disappointed is the bulky remote control, it is a bit oversized if I’m a kid or teen.

Due to previous success of the Kingston 2GB MiniSD Flash Card Giveaway!, I have another gift to our readers. I’m giving out the Kingmax 4GB U-Drive USB Flash Drive. As we demand more storage capacity, I picked up the 4GB rather than 2GB from the store. I have had plenty of USB drives myself including the Kingmax’s Super Stick (smallest in the world?) but it’s so small that I lost mine eventually. This U-Drive is sturdy and reliable because I’m using its 2GB drive on my daily routine.

When the Wikigiz (the red guy) run to the right end of the meter (100%), meaning the prize will be awarded to someone soon! Read the Gizmo-meter for detail.

Spec:

• Compatible (No drivers needed) with Windows Vista, XP, 2000, ME, Linux with Kernel 2.4 and MAC OS 9.0+

I’m giving away this 2GB MiniSD to show appreciation to loyal readers. You can win this in the Gizmo-meter. Good Luck!
